Oddly enough I have seen that in previous versions, too.
Sometimes it does that and sometimes it takes the last period as
starting the extension, but it is not (in my experience) a 7.5
thing.
Have a great day,
Alex

Subject: [Braillenote] creating documents under KS 7.5
Dear BrailleNote list,
I found something rather interesting when creating a document in
class
today. I will normally differentiate my lecture notes by using
the date, the
format I tended to use was month.day.year, so today would be,
9.4.07. I
found out after wasting about 20 minutes in class that after
pressing the
first decimal after the n9 that KeySoft was taking the rest of
the numbers
following the first decimal to be a file extension. Two things
occurred from
this:
1. I couldn't locate the file using keyword. I had to go through
file
manager, but even then I couldn't open the file as the extension
was 0407,
which isn't a valid file type.
2. After creating the document, the system came up with "review
the
options?" So, I thought from here that KS 7.5 must of changed my
default
wordprocessor files. I went into setup options under keyword and
reentered
the file name, same issue. So, after 20 minutes of fiddling with
this in
class, it dawned me that it was possible that KeySoft took the
decimal as an
extension.
So as a pointer, do not use decimals when typing in file names.
From here on
I will use a / or - instead of a period. I think that this is a
small
enough issue that it most likely won't be fixed in the patch, but
it will be
great if it was.
Kevin
